    While I was incarcerated my mother, ***************************, made a bail agreement with ********************* at Bail Hotline Bailbonds's ***************** to pay $8,000 total to post my bail. The agreed upon payment arrangement included a down payment of $1,900, followed by $100 monthly payments. She made the initial $1,900 payment before I was released on bail, and then I was released.Upon reviewing my payment arrangement documents in the office, the paperwork had changed to include two payments of $500 before the monthly payments begin. One a week after the date my bail was posted, and one 24 days after my bail was posted. Furthermore, the total amount to be paid was changed to $10,000. When I called out this change to the woman in the office, she told me that I would need to discuss the discrepancy with the bail officer and that if I didn't sign the agreement that they would revoke my bail and I would be taken back to jail.Needless to say, I signed the financial agreement to avoid incarceration, but they are now telling me that they are "unable" to change the payment arrangements. They are continuing to threaten to revoke my bail & attempting to entrap me into an altered total amount and payment arrangement.
